BE SURE YOU'RE RIGHT, AND THEN GO AHEAD!

LUKE
2:52

Pastor Rick
Jackson

If you study the life of Davy Crockett you will learn that he
had a life motto, “BE SURE YOU'RE RIGHT, AND THEN GO AHEAD!” He applied this to
all areas of his life. In shooting he said, "Be sure you're right and then
go ahead and pull the trigger!" In getting married, in fighting, and even
in politics: "If I'm the only member of the house to vote against this
bill--- yes, if I'm the only man in the whole country against it, I'll still
vote against it! It'll be a matter of rejoicing to me till the day I die that
I've voted as I intend."

I don't know if Davy came up with his motto from the
Scriptures but the plain truth is, it is Scriptural! Eph. 5:10 says,
"Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord!" Now using the pattern of
our Lord from Luke 2:52 let's see how it might work.
